<p>
The procedures exported by the <tt>(rnrs unicode (6))</tt><a name="node_idx_2"></a>library provide access to some aspects
of the Unicode semantics for characters and strings:
category information, case-independent comparisons,
case mappings, and normalization&nbsp;[<a href="r6rs-lib-Z-H-21.html#node_bib_12">12</a>].</p>
<p>
Some of the procedures that operate on characters or strings ignore the
difference between upper case and lower case. These procedures
have &#8220;<tt>-ci</tt>&#8221; (for &#8220;case
insensitive&#8221;) embedded in their names.</p>

<div align=left><tt>(<a name="node_idx_10"></a>char-foldcase<i> char</i>)</tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;procedure&nbsp;</div>
<p>
These procedures take a character argument and return a character
result. If the argument is an upper-case or title-case character, and if
there is a single character that is its lower-case form, then
<tt>char-downcase</tt> returns that character. If the argument is a lower-case
or title-case character, and there is a single character that is
its upper-case form, then <tt>char-upcase</tt> returns that character.
If the argument is a lower-case
or upper-case character, and there is a single character that is
its title-case form, then <tt>char-titlecase</tt> returns that character.
If the argument is not a title-case character and there is no single
character that is its title-case form, then <tt>char-titlecase</tt>
returns the upper-case form of the argument.
Finally, if the character has a case-folded character,
then <tt>char-foldcase</tt> returns that character.
Otherwise the character returned is the same
as the argument.
For Turkic characters <u>I</u> (<tt>#<tt>\</tt>x130</tt>)
and (<tt>#<tt>\</tt>x131</tt>),
<tt>char-foldcase</tt> behaves as the identity function; otherwise
<tt>char-foldcase</tt> is the
same as <tt>char-downcase</tt> composed with <tt>char-upcase</tt>.</p>

</blockquote><p>
</p>
<blockquote><em>Note:&nbsp;&nbsp;</em>
These procedures are consistent with
Unicode&#8217;s locale-independent mappings from scalar values to
scalar values for upcase, downcase, titlecase, and case-folding
operations. These mappings can be extracted from <tt>UnicodeData.txt</tt> and <tt>CaseFolding.txt</tt> from the Unicode
Consortium, ignoring Turkic mappings in the latter.<p>
Note that these character-based procedures are an incomplete
approximation to case conversion, even ignoring the user&#8217;s locale.
In general, case mappings require the context of a string, both in
arguments and in result. The <tt>string-upcase</tt>, <tt>string-downcase</tt>, <tt>string-titlecase</tt>, and <tt>string-foldcase</tt> procedures (section&nbsp;<a href="#node_sec_1.2">1.2</a>)
perform more general case conversion.

A character is upper case if it has the Unicode
&#8220;Uppercase&#8221; property, lower case if it has the &#8220;Lowercase&#8221;
property, and title case if it is in the Lt general category.</p>

<p>
These procedures take a string argument and return a string
result. They are defined in terms of Unicode&#8217;s locale-independent
case mappings from Unicode scalar-value sequences to scalar-value sequences.
In particular, the length of the result string can be different from
the length of the input string.
When the specified result is equal in the sense of <tt>string=?</tt> to the
argument, these procedures may return the argument instead of a newly
allocated string.</p>
<p>
The <tt>string-upcase</tt> procedure converts a string to upper case;
<tt>string-downcase</tt> converts a string to lower case. The <tt>string-foldcase</tt> procedure converts the string to its case-folded
counterpart, using the full case-folding mapping, but without the
special mappings for Turkic languages. The <tt>string-titlecase</tt>
procedure converts the first cased character of each word via <tt>char-titlecase</tt>, and downcases all other cased characters.</p>
